Guest guest Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Why does it take us so long to figure these things out. I'm trying to figure out how I can make my own pizza not using any canned sauces due to the chemicals. I also don't feel like making home made tomato sauce every time I want pizza. Enjoy!

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Green sauce: I like making pasta sauce from ground bean and grain flour (mixed grains and legumes). Just blend one to two cups of fresh ground flour into one quart of hot water. I'll add garlic, onions, peppers mushrooms + salt, herbs like fresh basil and rosemary from the garden (and even some tomato sauce). It can be green if I use enough split green peas in the bean+grain mix. Otherwise it is brown and very gravy-like. Comfort food, but no fat & little simple sugars.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Whenever we order pizzas, I always get one with no cheese. It’s quite delicious, and I’ve never had the toppings fall off!

Whenever my family would get pizza, I always just got a salad. I just couldn't bear to have a pizza with no cheese and have all the toppings falling off. It just dawned on me last night that I could order a calzone with all my toppings, no cheese and it's all right there in a nifty little pocket of yumminess!!! And...It WAS SOOOO GOOD!!!

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Sounds like a yummy idea. However, I don't eat out (or delivered) as I've found that some foods you would never suspect to have animal products in them, do. Restaurants are not above adding animal fat or bases to food to " enhance " the flavor. Like adding chicken stock to rice or broccoli when cooking or real butter to biscuit dough. Or even handling your food when preparing it. The same hands, whether gloved or not, are likely handling meats and other animal products as well. And I can't rely on the server to know if the items are true vegan or not. They typically don't care and will just tell you what you want to hear. It's just something to keep in mind. Kim P.S. My apologies to the group regarding my salad dressing recipe idea faux pas earlier; the toffuti sour cream is not fat free.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Yes, calzones are the best! We live near a vegan friendly, NY style pizza place-they actually make a vegan pie! Now I mostly order a spinach and cheese-free pesto sauce calzone with roasted garlic...Oh my! I haven't checked yet but is there an oil free or low oil recipe for pesto on this site? -Paula > It just dawned on me last night that I could order a calzone.... > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
